Basil Appollis will serve as director and Camillo Lombard will accompany Kortje. She is a former winner of the South African singing reality show Idols and hails from Grabouw in the Western Cape. After winning the third season of Idols, Kortje released her debut album entitled Forever And The Day in November 2006. The album received positive reviews from critics and exceeded sales – reaching gold status in South Africa selling just over 20,000 copies
I caught up with her last week ahead of her show.
Other than the fact that it is my job, music fulfils me.
Singing. Whether it is live on stage, or in the studio, I feel my happiest when I have a microphone in my hand.
I once chewed some gum on stage while I was singing. It later got stuck in my throat, luckily I managed to divert from stopping the song and got the issue sorted out immediately.
Whiskey and water.
To sell out Cape Town Stadium with me and my protégé singers as the headliners.
Kay Kay.
I'd work as a beauty therapist.
Humble, strong, talented, beautiful, and honest.
I'm So Ready; my winning song from Idols SA.
Cherrie Couture dresses.
Is still to come.
Too much to mention (laughs).
Work work work. I don't mind putting in the hours until the final product is perfect from my point of view.
Prosperity and happiness.
